JAKARTA - Walmart Inc. or better known as Walmart, a company that manages a crime scene in the United States continues to make bold steps to make Walmart a fashion destination by launching the "Be Your Own Model".

Based on an announcement shared on Thursday, September 15, the company said that Be Your Own Model uses Walmart's virtual trial technology by bringing the room experience fit inside the store to online buyers.

"This experience allows customers to use their own photos to better visualize how clothes will look on them," the company wrote.

We're here to make choosing your OOTD as easy as 1, 2, chic! Introducing Be Your Own Model, the next phase of Walmart’s virtual try-on tech, allowing customers to use their own photo to better visualize themselves in clothing when shopping online. https://t.co/SskeU5Eyn6 pic.twitter.com/NTuQCjTe3U

Walmart became the first shopping app to offer a virtual trial experience for clothing brands on a large scale, and this is the most realistic app.

"With the Be Your Own Model, customers see an ultra-realistical simulation with shadows, drawing cloth and where clothes fall on their figure in seconds," he added.

So, like trying clothes in the right room when shopping directly at the store, you can feel the same experience, but you do it from home.

"Our technology captures all variations and shows how they look unique to each individual."

In this feature, you will see more than 270,000 items across Walmart portfolios for exclusive brands including Free Assembly, Scoop, Sofia Jeans and Sofia Active by Sofia Vergara, Levi's and many more.

Unfortunately, Be Your Own Model is currently just rolling out to iOS users from the Walmart app. However, Walmart said that this feature will be available on Android devices in the coming weeks.

Be Your Own Model is the next step in implementing Zeekit's technology, which the company took, after previously introducing the Choice My Model earlier this year.

This feature currently offers customers the ability to choose from 50 models with a height of between 5'2" 6'0 and XS XXXL sizes.

With this feature, customers can determine the model that represents the most height, body shape, and color of their skin to understand how an item will look on them.

However, with the launch of the next iteration of this virtual experiment technology, you can try clothes with your own body.
